Incorporating jazz-influenced elements and material drawn from the American folk tradition with lyrical, plaintive cadenza writing, this exciting new work will be loved by all who appreciate the horn writing of Alec Wilder. A very important addition to the repertoire of solo horn works by women composers.

This lyrical love duet is quintessential Monteverdi with beautiful melodic lines and occasional unexpectedly poignant suspensions. Well-suited either to church or recital settings, this was originally transcribed for use at the wedding of two hornists.

This flashy, virtuosic theme and variations work by John Phillip Sousa's trombonist is well-suited to horn technique, making it one of those rare pieces which sounds more difficult than it is. A proven audience-pleaser from a repertoire normally reserved for trumpeters and trombonists.

We present this standard of the horn repertoire in a new edition with many corrections and without the infamous impossible page turn found in other editions, which has caused so much panic over the years.

This colorful, virtuosic work is a prime example of contemporary music idiomatic for the horn. The three movements include "Pronouncement and Assemblage", alternatively lyrical and florid, the Bartokian "Cadences of a Darkened Wood", and the reflective soliloquies and frenzied horn calls of a "Dawn Foray". Hornists who enjoy performing the Gordon Jacob Concerto will love Venatic Chronicle.
